Beck potions

Why are pool bowls important?

Animals need access to fresh water 24 hours a day. It requires significantly more water than feed. Because water has many important functions in the body and keeps the circulation upright. Among other things, it is needed in the body for different metabolic processes and for the removal and excretion of metabolic end products. It is therefore important for species-appropriate animal husbandry to always provide water in sufficient quantity and quality. Since not all livestock can be kept close to natural waters, water is otherwise provided. In agriculture, therefore, the use of potions is common. Especially in the pasture watering holes are needed. An animal basically drinks many liters of water a day. A single cow may already need 150 liters per day. For the welfare of the animals, it is therefore necessary to ensure a sufficient supply of water on particularly hot days or in dry summers. This happens, for example, via different basins or troughs.

The benefits of pool bowls

Since the water demand can vary greatly depending on the weather and temperature, it is important to provide large quantities. This happens, for example, in mobile pasture barrels. Thanks to the closed barrel, the water does not evaporate. With the appropriate drinkers animals can drink easily. It only runs as much as the animal drinks, there is not much wrong and it does not run out. Only livestock know how to use it, wildlife keeps away. The water in the barrel is not polluted and it is provided hygienic to the animals. Horse drinks or potions for cattle and calves are therefore a good choice for grazing.

This is to be considered in the case of water for livestock

Depending on the species, a suitable place for potions should be found. For pigs, not where they spend most of their time, but off the beaten track. Not in the areas where animals rest, so that resting animals are not disturbed. Depending on the species, the drinkers are attached at the appropriate height. In addition, the water for cows should not be too far away, but approximately within a radius of 100 to 150 meters.

The models of Electra

Electra offers different solutions that are used as needed. The material is depending on the model, for example, cast iron or high quality plastic. It is stable and sturdy and can not be bitten or torn off by animals. The capacity of the potions or the volume of the trough should be taken into consideration as needed. Basically, the models are easy to assemble. Before the purchase, the attachment must be observed. Whether it is suitable for high and low pressure, whether it is a smooth-running pipe valve and whether the appropriate connections for water are available. There are also models without water connections available. Such as a general-purpose trough made of plastic. This is small and stable with several liters of wall-mountable capacity. This is, for example, a plastic rectangle trough that is simply mounted to the wall. The capacity can be for example 8 L or 14 L. They are thick-walled and made of high-quality special plastic. Furthermore, the dimensions should be noted. They include a built-in bite edge and also reinforced front struts. The rounded version prevents residual food from remaining in the trough.
